Although we have not been together for a long time, our feelings for the old man are not shallow, he is frank, kind, gentle, he is a good person, and in the cave is considered to share the suffering, if he has three long and two short, we will be very guilty.

Everyone's expressions were heavy, and there was an oppressive silence in the room.

"Lao Lu is Japanese? If Xiao Lei's inference is correct, then it may not be a group of Japanese people who are mixed in. Madman Six looked at the female translator and the other two Japanese women, as if he meant something.

The Japanese female translator immediately heard the voice of the madman Liu, and said firmly: "I can assure you that that Lao Lu is by no means our group, as for his true details, we also don't know anything, please believe us, our purpose has been told to everyone, there is no concealment, we have been born and died so many times, and Xiao Lei has saved us, we will not do anything sorry for our friends." ”

After listening to the words of the female translator, several of us nodded again and again, in fact, thinking about it, the female translator is also, there is no need to engage in any conspiracy.

Crazy Sixth also felt that his words were a little too heavy, so he softened his tone and said, "Well, I believe you are telling the truth, but this old Lu is too weird, I don't know what the details are?" Moreover, I always feel that the disappearance of Old Man Ouyang must have something to do with that old Lu. ”

We all feel the same way, but what's the use? What should I do next, how can I find the old man?

Outside, dark clouds rolled, thunder rumbled, and the rain became heavier and heavier. We stood at the window, watching the pouring rain outside, all lost in thought.

At this moment, Xiao Lei suddenly pointed to the hillside outside the window and shouted loudly: "Look, isn't that Old Man Ouyang?" ”

All of us were taken aback, and hurriedly squeezed to the window to look out, and sure enough, on the opposite hillside, there was a person in the heavy rain, who was stumbling towards the hotel and walking hard, the familiar figure should be the old man Ouyang, and he seemed to be holding something in his arms, we guessed that it should be the "monkey eagle".

Before we could react, we heard Xiao Lei say: "You wait here first, I'll pick him up." Seeing Xiao Lei running down, I followed closely behind.

We borrowed three raincoats from the hotel front desk and ran into the heavy rain.

Anyone who has ever had the experience of surviving in the wild knows that in this kind of heavy rain, walking in the mountains is very dangerous, not only the road is wet and slippery, it is easy to lose control when walking, and what is more terrible is lightning - in this case, the probability of people being struck by lightning is very high.

But because of the special conditions, we can't manage so much.

In the pouring rain, we looked at where the old man was—he was still halfway up the hill, and he was tired or some other reason, he was sitting on a rock, and he had not gone any further.

Xiao Lei and I used our hands and feet to climb up, but several times we were washed down by the rushing water. After a long while, we climbed to the place where the old man was sitting.

I saw the old man sitting on the stone, his eyes were demented, his face was pale, he was panting heavily, holding the "monkey eagle" in his arms, and he was already drenched.

Xiao Lei and I hurriedly went over to put on a raincoat for him, almost carrying him down the hillside, in the process of going down the mountain, I don't know how many falls, the three of us were covered in mud, rain, sweat made us soaked - although wearing raincoats.

When entering the hotel hall, the three of us breathed a sigh of relief, a few waiters also came to help, Xiao Lei and I hurriedly sent the old man to my room, everyone hurriedly came around, but the old man still didn't say a word, a tired face, Xiao Lei and I hurriedly took him into the bathroom, we rinsed our bodies, and changed into dry clothes.

Then they came outside, and Sister Li and Hongmei asked the hotel for two bowls of ginger soup. After this qiē was cleaned up, the old man sat on the sofa and drank a few sips of hot ginger soup, and his face slowly returned to its normal color.

"Why didn't you say hello and ran out, but we were scared to death, thinking you were missing?"

After listening to Sister Li's words, the old man smiled bitterly and said, "Thank you for your concern, alas, I also seem to have a nightmare!" ”

Hearing the old man say this, there must be something wrong.

"Oh? What the hell is going on? Tell me what happened. Xiao Lei hurriedly asked.

The old man did not answer immediately, but let out a long breath, leaned his head back on the couch, and closed his eyes as if he were trying to remember something.

After nearly a minute, he slowly spoke: "Well, what happened last night is really incredible, the matter of that old Lu, maybe Xiao Lei and Xiao Ming have already told everyone, but what I didn't expect was that after Xiao Ming and Xiao Lei left my house, another strange thing happened." ”

When the old man said this, his voice was suddenly very low, and there was a look of fear: "After Xiao Lei and Xiao Ming left, I took a little shower, and then fell asleep on the bed, and I slept very deeply, because as long as there is a "monkey eagle" next to me, I am very steady.

Maybe you're old, you sleep very lightly, and you will be woken up by the slightest sound. I don't know how long I slept, I was awakened by a sound, it was a very strange sound, it seemed to be the sound of a flute, it sounded like it was far away, and it seemed to be very close, I didn't pay much attention to it at the time, I just thought that it was so late, how could someone still play the flute? I'm not afraid to affect other people's rest, really.

But because I was so tired, I didn't even open my eyes and wanted to continue sleeping.

But at this moment, I suddenly heard the "monkey eagle", which made a few babbling sounds, and it seemed to be very urgent.

We have been together for more than ten years, although it can't speak, but as soon as it sounds, I can guess what it wants to express, and from these few babbling sounds, I feel that something is unusual, it seems to be trapped, I was immediately startled, and opened my eyes, but for some reason, when I wanted to get up, I was so weak that I didn't have any strength at all.

What's going on? It was as if I was being weighed down by a nightmare, conscious, but barely able to move.

At this moment, a thunderclap suddenly sounded outside the window, I was suddenly startled, sat up suddenly, the sound of the flute also disappeared temporarily, and I hurriedly turned on the light to see the "monkey eagle".

I was amazed to find that the "monkey eagle" was pounding painfully on the window with its wings, and I hurriedly ran over it. At first, I thought it was the "Monkey Eagle" that was suffocated, because it usually lives in a relatively open-air and breathable place, and has never entered such a closed room, so I hurriedly opened the window for it, but who knows, when I opened the window, I was surprised to find that on the mouth of the "Monkey Eagle", there was a "line" entangled, but when I looked closely, I found that it was not a line at all, but a wriggling, long insect, and the whole body was still slightly fluorescent, before I could react," The monkey eagle "has flapped its wings and fallen."

Only then did I realize that the pain of the "monkey eagle" just now was not because the room was closed and there was no fresh air, etc., but because it was entangled in the same line of insects.

After watching the "monkey eagle" fall, I panicked all of a sudden, although I only saw that its mouth was entangled in the worm, but seeing that its wings could not be spread, I immediately realized that the wings of the "monkey eagle" may also be entangled in that thing.

I almost shouted out in spite of a qiē, but immediately stopped myself, thinking that if I shouted like this, maybe I would alarm everyone in the hotel, and then the "Monkey Eagle" would probably be discovered.

So, I had no choice but to try my best to control my feelings, and try to pretend that nothing had happened, and go outside, even though I walked quickly.

When I got outside, I noticed that the "monkey eagle" was stumbling up the hill with its wings fluttering with difficulty, and of course I followed behind without hesitation.

I was shocked that the "Monkey Eagle" had never been such a wolf since it had grown up, and that no matter what kind of hardships it encountered before, it could easily resolve them, and with its intelligence and ferocious attacking ability, no one could calculate it, and no beast was its opponent.

But what happened this time, it seemed to have been kidnapped by something, and it couldn't help but go to the mountains. My heart was like a knife, worried and distressed.

I could see that the "Monkey Eagle" wanted to desperately resist going into the mountains, but I didn't know what the power was, but kept pulling it into the mountains. Is it such a strange bug? What kind of bug is that, and why does it have such strange powers?

Fortunately, in this way, the "monkey eagle" struggled to fly not very fast, and from time to time it fell from mid-air and made a terrible cry. I ignored a qiē chase.

I don't know how long I chased and climbed a few hills, I suddenly smelled a familiar smell, I know, this is the killer feature of "Monkey Eagle", why do you say that this is its killer feature?

You may not know that this bird of prey is not afraid of beasts, but of small parasites and all sorts of other insects - just as an elephant is not afraid of a tiger, but of a mouse that burrows into its nose.

As soon as this smell comes out, all kinds of insects will be stunned and even smoked to death, but this smell is almost lethal to people, and the smell of mothballs is a bit similar, do you remember? When I was a child, as long as I drew a circle with mothballs, I could encircle ants inside, because ants were afraid of the smell of mothballs, so mothballs can be used to repel insects.

However, the smell of the "monkey eagle" is not something that can be emitted if you want to, it needs a certain amount of stimulation on the body of the "monkey eagle" by insects before it can be emitted.

This must be the kind of worm like a line, and with enough stimulation to the body of the "monkey eagle", this smell is emitted, but it really works, the "monkey eagle" seems to have broken free, standing there quietly, no longer struggling to fly again, I hurried and hurried, this time finally caught up with the "monkey eagle".

At this time, I felt that I was already soaked with sweat, and I suddenly collapsed on the ground, almost fainting from exhaustion. The "Monkey Eagle" flew up to me and barked at me, as if to ask me if I was okay.

It took me a long time before I slowly recovered.

In the darkness, I saw a faintly fluorescent thread on the ground not far away, which should be a thread-shaped bug. ”
